What Is a Wrongful Death Lawsuit?
A wrongful death claim works much like other personal injury lawsuits—it aims to hold negligent parties accountable for failing to meet their “duty of care.”
In simpler terms, if someone’s negligence caused your loved one’s death, you have the right to pursue compensation. Your attorney will work to prove that their actions—or failure to act—led to the tragic incident.
Beyond covering medical bills, funeral expenses, and lost wages, a wrongful death claim can offer something invaluable: a sense of justice.
While no amount of money can bring your loved one back, a fair settlement can provide peace of mind for the future. It allows you to take the time you need to grieve without the added burden of financial worries.
Accidents That Lead to Wrongful Death Claims
We help families seek justice in a wide range of wrongful death cases, including:

Time Is Limited to File a Claim
